12 most popular diets to follow in 2014

Mediterranean Diet

It's a widely known fact that those who live on a Mediterranean diet are supposed to look better and live longer. Even doctors have agreed that a Mediterranean diet rich in fresh fruit and veg with plenty of olive oil is really good for your health.

More of a lifestyle choice than a diet, this one seems to be more suitable for getting the whole family involved with. The diet is full of fruit and veg, and encourages followers to stop buying processed food in favour of making homemade pasta sauces from scratch.

So what else can you eat? As well as fruit and veg, you can get stuck into nuts, pulses, seeds, lean meat, fish, seafood, olive oil and even red wine (phew!)
